After returning from the $2002 Challenge in February I was distressed when I couldn't find the memory card containing most of our photos of the event. We searched the tow vehicle, the GT6, all our bags, and even the trash with no results. Months later the missing card turned up. It had fallen into Mike Konopka's autocross helmet so now we can share the photos with you.
Since returning from Florida we learned that GRM (Grassroots Motorsports Magazine) awarded us an honorable mention as a "team that best demonstrated the spirit of the event". We even received brief mentions in Car and Driver magazine and Hot Rod magazine.
We are preparing the car for the $2003 challenge, which will be held April 4-5 at the Gainesville Raceway in Gainesville Florida. Spectators are welcome, so mark your calendar!
